Dear Sirs 
As you may know, we are growing nine solid acres 
of daylilies consisting of over a quarter million plants. 
It was my intention to issue a most comprehensive cata- 
logue this fall. illustrated with colored kodachrome cuts; 
but due to conditions brought about by the war we are 
compelled to put this off for a while, and instead, issue 
these mimeographed sheets, but we are giving you the ben- 
efit of a radical reduction in price in the form of a 
summer clearance sale. I am placing this offer in several 
groups and you will do well to go thru these lists thor~ 
oughly. Should you care to avail yourself of these qual- 
ity plants at these unheard of low prices, you will 
please place your order with us before October 15th, as 
under no condition can these prices be effective after 
that date. Then too, ordering early avoids the disap- 
pointment by some varieties already being sold out for 
the season. If you are not ready to plant now and wish 
to avail yourself of these prices, you may place your 
order now for delivery any time up to May 1, 1944, 
We anticipate your order with pride and assure 
you that every order will receive our careful and immedi- 
ate attention, Every plant will come to you well packed, 
properly labeled and strictly true to name, Under no 
circumstances do we ever substitute without your author- 
ization, 
Respectfully yours, 
H. M. Russell
